When I was a Catholic, we sang this too. I have worshipped as a Lutheran (LCMS)now for many years, and I really enjoy this uplifting hymn. I wish my local church would sing this more often as well.
A wonderful rendition. Many recordings have brass and tympany to accompany the congregation. Whilst this can be effective and add to the atmosphere, this clip shows that all that's needed is a good organ, very well played, and a sincere and enthusiastic congregation. God Bless all involved. Thank you for uploading.
Some Lutheran churches do have a tabernacle or ambry though often the Reserve Sacrament is kept in the sacristy. Also, stations of the cross are found in Lutheran churches and chapels.
This is St John Lutheran in Seward Nebraska, across the street from Concordia University. The organ is a 1968 Schlicker III/50. The room is wonderful for singing
@@brynnkohler4084 you do realize the video is at a Lutheran Church? At a Lutheran mass? If they changed the words to differentiate themselves from their "legit mother", you would hear it more often in protestant churches. 3rd note, the "legit mother(father)" of Lutheranism is God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Lutherans hold to His dictations and the Faith He taught. Not to any man made doctrines like the Roman Catholics do.
@@nathanielstuck2422 ppfpfph. "Mass" at a Lutheran Church? Whatever. Have you heard the Protestant hymn "Faith of Our Fathers?" That's the melody with Protestantized lyrics that diminished the Roman Catholic "Holy God We Praise They Name."
@@brynnkohler4084 Yeah, Lutheran mass. The real mass, not the Roman Catholic blasphemy of our Lord. Hebrews 10:11-12 Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God. Jesus was sacrificed once for the forgiveness of sins. Not every time the Lord's Supper is celebrated. The Lord's Supper is not a sin offering (as Rome puts it), but a gift from God.
To God alone the glory

KenJeffery1, Absolutely!!
It's very hard to find a concert-level organist now.
At least once a day the words of this hymn goes thru my mind. Giving thanks and praise to our Lord for all He provides for us.
YOU LIFT MY SPIRIT
I love this song but so many versions fly through it. I like a more slowed down version, as more of a worship than praise. Still beautiful.
Like the songs
That introduction seems inspired by the Paul Manz improvisation (and later publication) on this tune.

Nice! This is Lutheran right? No tabernacle or stations of the cross. Good organ.
Yep - we Dare to be Lutheran!

This organ getting an electrical overhaul pretty soon.
A great hymn! I don't hear it many Lutheran churches though!
Yeah, because the Protestants changed all the words to differentiate themselves from their predecessor and legit mother, the Roman Catholic Church.

For years, it was the processional hymn at our seminary's Sacred Convocation. That, or the recessional.
